Welcome trusteed loyal Kix readers. We hope you are enjoying the New year? As you no doubt have come to expect, Kix have yet another spectacular career to share with you. Giving you new insight and added inspiration to another industry that you may have always wondered about but just not had theopportunity to research. Therefore, we have invited Bogna Teuchman to put us in the picture (excuse the pun) on what it is like being a photographer!
What is your job title? I am a studio photographer. I work in a photo studio, based in Croydon.
Why did you choose this field? I started taking photos when I was about 14 or 15 years old, with my mum`s old Zenith camera (the same camera she had used at Olympics games in Moscow in 1980!). I grew up in the times when traditional photography was being replaced by digital cameras. I used to spend all my pocket money for printing images - I still do it haha. I have always been passionate about fashion photography.
I used to be a photomodel for a couple of years, but then I decided that standing on the other side of the lens is more fun!
For a couple of summers I used to teach kids about
photography at summer camps in the USA. I think this is when I thought for the first time “I could do that forever!”.
What qualifications are required if any?
I have got a Masters degree in Cultural Studies. I did a photography course as a part of my studies, but I never did any school of photography as such. I was trained in Miami. For about 2 years I was working as a cruise ship photographer
